Personal Bandana

[sic] is an effort nearly two years in the making, recorded between January 2017 and August 2018 live to 8 track cassette in the basements of Charlottesville, Virginia. Aided by their trusty Casio CZ-101s, Gibson and Thatcher produce a kaleidoscope of sounds, from the Krautrock throb of Time To Rule to the ambient atmosphere of Naturlied.
